rename all public data members of RC_Channnels with
leading underscore and make all data members private.
Provide get_xx and set_xx methods for access
Rationale:
RC_Channel is a complicated class, which combines
several functionalities dealing with stick inputs
in pwm and logical units, logical and actual actuator
outputs, unit conversion etc, etc
The intent of this PR is to clarify existing use of
the class. At the basic level it should now be possible
to grep all places where private variable is set by
searching for the set_xx function.
(The wider purpose is to provide a more generic and
logically simpler method of output mixing. This is a small step)
add function to save radio trim
(expression where c is an object of type RC_Channel)
old public member(int16_t) get function -> int16_t set function (int16_t)
(expression where c is an object of type RC_Channel)
c.radio_in c.get_radio_in() c.set_radio_in(v)
c.control_in c.get_control_in() c.set_control_in(v)
c.servo_out c.get_servo_out() c.set_servo_out(v)
c.pwm_out c.get_pwm_out() // use existing
c.radio_out c.get_radio_out() c.set_radio_out(v)
c.radio_max c.get_radio_max() c.set_radio_max(v)
c.radio_min c.get_radio_min() c.set_radio_min(v)
c.radio_trim c.get_radio_trim() c.set_radio_trim(v);
// other
c.min_max_configured() // return true if min and max are configured
c.save_radio_trim() // save radio trim to eeprom
This is a hackish way to allow waf running on windows. In some
combinations of the tools the python interpreter seems to be crashing on
windows:

Here we check the return code to be greater than 128 since that means the
interpreter received a signal. In this case we clear the return code.
This has no side effects, but since all implementations were basically
the same, move the implementation to GCS_Common and the only part that
adjusts the rate based on which which stream to each individual
GCS_MAVLINK implementation.
